MIPS Revised (Millon Index of Personality Styles Revised)

PDF Reports

Product Description

The newly updated MIPS Revised test helps address the need for a theoretically grounded instrument that may be administered by a broad range of professionals, including human resource specialists, social work and career counsellors and private practice clinicians.

Addresses Key Dimensions of Normal Personalities

While brief to administer, the MIPS Revised test provides a comprehensive, up-to-date evaluation that surpasses the scope of many other normal personality assessments. The MIPS Revised instrument addresses three key dimensions of normal personalities:

Motivating Styles, which helps to assess the person's emotional style in dealing with his/her environment;

Thinking Styles, which helps to examine the person's mode of cognitive processing; and

Behaving Styles, which helps to assess the person's way of interrelating with others.

This widely useful test offers a convenient tool to help professionals assist ostensibly normally functioning adults who may be experiencing difficulties in work, family or social relationships. It may also be helpful in career counseling or employment settings.

In addition, the test's Clinical Index is useful in helping to screen for the possible presence of mental disorders in persons who present as normal.

How to Use This Test

The MIPS Revised test has proven useful in a variety settings, including:

Employee selection, as a pre-offer screening tool

Employee assistance programs

Leadership and employee development programs

Career planning for high school and college students

As part of the curriculum for college courses in psychological testing

Relationship, premarital, and marriage counseling

Individual counselling

Key Features

Developed by Dr. Millon in 1994 and revised in 2003, the MIPS Revised test has strong theoretical and practical backing.

Scale names and the profile display have been updated to provide administrators with better information for interpreting test results.

With only 180 true/false items, the test can be completed in less than 30 minutes on average.

While clinically and theoretically grounded, the MIPS Revised test does not require administration by an advanced-degreed professional.

Norms The MIPS Revised test offers separate norms for adults and college students, and for both separate and combined genders.
